#philosophy question WYNN I am…
#philosophy question WYNN
I am wondering what the gang thinks of this situation;
August 8 I was assigned 100 shares of WYNN at 165 from a put spread. My cost basis is 141, the price of the stock is 116 right now. I’ve been selling covered calls and will be at it awhile unless..
Does it make sense to sell the shares and free up the capital? I could sell puts to work back to even, same risk profile but only need about $2,000 in margin.
Earnings are soon as is a .75 dividend so wouldn’t do anything right away.
Thanks
